Sustainability

Our environmental initiatives

String Project runs several initiatives related to the environmental impacts of its activities. On this page we describe the actions we have taken, the available data and the projects we support, indicating verifiable sources where possible.

Actions and data

We have identified a number of areas where we can act directly or through our suppliers and partners.

Electricity from renewable sources

The electricity purchased for our headquarters comes from renewable sources, according to our supplier's contract.

Electric mobility

We use electric vehicles for part of our business travel: while driving they produce no tailpipe emissions.

IT infrastructure

Our digital services are hosted in data centres run by external providers: for the environmental characteristics of the infrastructure we refer to the documentation published by the provider.

Packaging materials

For shipments we use cardboard boxes and paper filling, to be disposed of according to local recycling rules.

How we choose some suppliers

When selecting some suppliers, such as packaging and logistics, we also consider the environmental information they make available.

Our projects

Two environmental initiatives we support through external partners, with verifiable data.

Planting a tree with Tree-Nation

Reforestation project

For every product sold we fund the planting of a tree through Tree-Nation. The up-to-date number of trees in the String Project forest can be verified on the public Tree-Nation profile.

Plastic recovery from the seabed

Plastic recycling

Through Plastiks.io we support plastic recovery operations with credits and guarantees linked to verifiable projects. The quantities associated with the String Project profile are published on the dedicated page.

Ongoing assessment

We are assessing the technical feasibility of using recycled materials in some product components. Any new environmental targets will be published together with their scope, metrics and verification methods.
